  • Capital Fundraising Plan to Establish Varsity Wrestling and Women's
    Capital Fundraising Plan to Establish Varsity Wrestling and Women’s Equestrian A thesis submitted to the Miami University Honors Program in partial fulfillment of the requirements for University Honors with Distinction by David Curry May 2007 Oxord, Ohio ABSTRACT CAPITAL FUNDRAISING PLAN TO ESTABLISH VARSITY WRESTLING AND WOMEN’S EQUESTRIAN By David Curry The capital fundraising plan is a business plan investigating the resources necessary to establish two new varsity athletics programs at Miami University, a Division I member of the National Collegiate Athletic Association. The plan includes a historical context of the effects of the gender equity in education act, Title IX, both nationally and its implications at Miami. Further, an analysis is conducted demonstrating the market for student-athletes in wrestling and equestrian with the case for potential donors. The thesis outlines the development and operations of the capital fundraising plan through volunteer fundraising committees initiating donor relationships. The financial analysis defends the creation of endowments summing $7.5 Million for wrestling and $11 Million for equestrian in addition to start-up costs totaling $1.6 Million that allows the teams to run without the financial aid of the University with the maximum number of scholarships allowed by the NCAA for both sports. ii iii Capital Fundraising Plan to Establish Varsity Wrestling and Women’s Equestrian by David S.
